what brand is everyone using for there wh brakes. i have a stuck brake caliper on the drivers side and the pad is almost gone on one side so i need brakes as soon as possible
 
Crap I really don't need

Like most of you, I have a ton of mods I have yet to do. One (of many) idea involves installing more factory buttons. Because our rigs only have a limitrd amount of slots (I hate hacking shit), I noticed on later model Limiteds there is another slot besides the dimmer. This is supposed to house the memory buttons. Mine (2005) didnt come with it so it will house something else.

Saw this on ebay and bidded thinking I would loose. I didnt and it arrived today. More crap I really don't need. Makes me happy nevertheless.

Akebono

Seems like semi metallic? There was a consensus somewhere, maybe this site, that they make Toyota stock OEM pads?

I love them.
 
Used her like a truck to pick up a 6'x 4' X 5' shed from hardware store!!! Also, used my "patented" recovery hook to rear hatch mechanism tie down strap close the rear gate as far as possible technique!:banana:

Looks like a little oil got up in there.

Painted some stuff, "installed" my subwoofer remote. Fingers crossed it looks okay when I remove the tape.

Fender flare was missing clearcoat, rear bumper end had road-rash type spots.

Leftover paint is going to go on my satochi grille.

Some progress on my bumper build. I'm gonna skin it with thin plate next weekend. I forgot that I should be adding this to my build.

Got my heads pulled off. Had some minor scares when I stripped two head bolts. Ended up drilling it out until the head of the bolt broke off. Also looked at the gasket and it seems like this is where it was leaking. Cylinder 6 like most other failures Ive seen. Looks like I caught it very early though which gives me hope my engine will last.

Got the front end lifted ... Vast improvement in looks and ride. I've taken measurements all around and while Ironman says 45mm (1.77 inches from stock) for the front, I got significantly more than that from my saggy old setup. Pics to come once I finish the rear, either today or tomorrow. But for now, a comparison pic ...
